Awakening：The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener - Chapter 732

Chapter 732: Chapter 732: Legendary Story — Complete!
Slap!!

A crisp sound echoed across the forbidden zone, like the note of some mysterious instrument, pulling at the hearts of everyone within earshot.

Immediately after, Augustine, who had just been filled with rage and was about to fight Sterl to the death, was suddenly sent flying backward at a speed faster than when he had charged.

Boom!!

The already broken forbidden zone instantly formed a crater with a diameter of ten thousand meters. The visible shockwave spread outward in all directions, causing Kun and the others to shudder.

Such a precise and flawless slap—surely that didn’t feel pleasant at all.

Looking at the crater, where Augustine’s consciousness was beginning to blur, for some inexplicable reason, the gods of the Legion of Hell felt a sense of sympathy in their hearts.

How much power would it take to reduce an ancient Frost Giant Dragon to such a state? If that slap had landed on them, they probably would have died on the spot.

Cough cough… What… is this… kind of power?

Augustine struggled to open his eyes, his vision blurred, and his mind was in a daze. It seemed like there was a lump next to his eye, blocking most of his view.

Reaching out his massive claw, he touched the protrusion with disbelief.

Hiss~

A sharp pain shot through his nerves, almost making him roll his eyes and pass out from the agony.

At first glance, what he had thought was a protrusion was actually… his own face!

Sterl looked down at him, his gaze falling on Augustine’s completely twisted and deformed figure, and the swollen lump on his left cheek that was bigger than his head. He nodded in satisfaction.

This was a masterpiece he had created using special techniques in conjunction with the Power of Star-Bone. Even an upper-level divine authority’s recovery ability couldn’t heal it anytime soon.

“Shall we continue?” Sterl asked with a slight grin.

He suppressed his aura and lowered the activation of his Star-Bone Sacred Body to its lowest setting. Though this would cause the power of the Star-Bone Body to drop by several times, it also reduced the consumption to just 0.1 units of Power of Star-Bone per second.

In this state, he could activate the Star-Bone Body at any time, without delay. This method was highly efficient, saving energy while also allowing him to defend against surprise attacks. It was extremely useful.

This was another effect derived from pushing the Star-Bone Sacred Body to its limit.

The Star-Bone Sacred Body was far more than what the [Transcendence] system had described. Some of its abilities had yet to be fully explored.

After all, real combat wasn’t as simple as displaying a stat sheet. Understanding and utilizing one’s abilities, personal combat experience, the environment, a bit of luck, and timing were all key factors in determining the outcome of a battle.

Feeling Sterl’s naked gaze, Augustine instantly felt as though his scales had been stripped off and he had been thrown into an icy wasteland. The sensation made his scalp tingle in discomfort.

Immediately, his eyes became clear, and his heart understood. If another slap like that came, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it. His brain would probably be splattered out.

The Frost Giant Dragon race, proud of their innate abilities and physical strength, seemed like a joke in front of this monster.

That slap just now had no Divine Power or Law enhancement at all; it was pure brute force. Such a creature… he had never seen anything like it, and honestly, he had never even heard of it.

Of course, as an ancient Frost Giant Dragon, a creature who had survived for countless eons, he did have a trump card. The Dragon Crystal left to him by his ancestors was a deadly weapon. As long as he consumed it, he could briefly activate the ancestral power.

With the power of the Frost Giant Dragon race, he would definitely not fear this monster.

But that approach… his body couldn’t withstand it. Once the power ran out, he’d be the first to die.

He didn’t want to die. If he did, he wouldn’t have abandoned the pride of the Frost Giant Dragon race and hidden himself in the lower realms, a desolate place where even birds wouldn’t want to shit. He had been hiding here for hundreds of thousands of years.

If it weren’t for the fact that he sensed the fusion of the worlds was about to end and the disaster would soon descend, he could have survived for a little while longer.

But then, he encountered Sterl—a terrifying, domineering existence.

“Ugh…”

After a moment of silence, Augustine immediately realized what was happening. With great difficulty, he pulled his body out of the deep crater.

Even such a simple movement made him feel like his body was about to fall apart.

“Of course not, you misunderstand me,” Augustine said, quickly softening. His tone became calm and submissive. “I didn’t mean to offend you.”

Sterl looked at the ancient Frost Giant Dragon with some surprise. This ancient being, who had come from the distant past, was unexpectedly… meek.

In the records, those ancient beings were known for their stubborn resistance, weren’t they?

If Augustine had known what Sterl was thinking, he would have been unable to resist sarcastically commenting: “Well, that’s why they became a part of the records, and I’m still alive.”

Grinding his teeth, Augustine’s heart was torn. If he chose to submit, his secrets would definitely be exposed. Not only would he fail to leave the Xirian Realm, but he might soon find himself dead at the hands of those damn ‘Purge’ forces.

But if he kept struggling, he might become just another part of the records—a legendary ancient Frost Giant Dragon who was killed shortly after its birth. Not only would he lose his dignity, but he would lose his life as well.

After only a brief hesitation, Augustine lowered his head.

“Great World Ruler, Augustine is willing to serve you.”

There was no other choice. Power was absolute, and this was his only option.

As soon as his words fell, an orange light, visible only to Sterl, rose from the earth.

To be precise, this layer of orange light spread across the entire world!

Whether it was the desolate, forbidden lands or the creature-infested regions like the Orichalcum Kingdom, massive amounts of orange light surged forth from all of them.

Sterl paused for a moment, and then the realization hit him—this was undoubtedly the puzzle piece to his legendary story!

During the activation of the legendary story, everything he did would be recorded until the story was fully completed.

And now, not only had his legendary story been completed, but it seemed to have surpassed a certain limit.

[Recommended Story 3: Ruler of the World Storm]

[Description: A war of gods, a war that will decide the fate of the world, is about to unfold. It is a world-shattering change, where the victor will rule all, and the defeated will become the foundation.

Kings and ministers, do they truly have the right to rule? You, the strongest on Earth, are the crucial spark of this war. You can choose to observe, to flee, or to join and assist, but there may be another choice?

This is a war, but also a rebirth. Perhaps, this land will witness the rise of a new Ruler! Will it be you?]

Reflecting on the legendary story he had chosen, Sterl realized that to complete it, all he needed was to suppress the Orichalcum Kingdom and the Ashen Temple. However, it didn’t require complete suppression—he only needed the acknowledgment of the two divine-level forces.

Yet, Sterl, with the Legion of Hell, had directly crushed the entire world!

Looking around, all the races and forces that chose to submit to him had survived. Everyone else had turned into “foundations.”

This wasn’t the Ruler of the World Storm; it was clearly the rise of a tyrant, a butcher so terrifying that reason no longer applied!

“I wonder what abilities will awaken with this new legendary upgrade…” Sterl thought, filled with some anticipation.

At present, his Star-Bone Sacred Body had reached its peak. The only thing left to upgrade was the Soul Prison’s Eerie Eyes talent.

Once that ability was fully upgraded, his power would temporarily hit a bottleneck.

Of course, this bottleneck wasn’t impossible to overcome—it would just take much longer to improve. But even so, this would still make him a figure of envy for countless gods.

And the new legendary ability would become another key part of his growing power.

Soon, the orange light that had surged outward began to rapidly converge into Sterl’s body.

At that moment, his attribute interface showed his legend points skyrocketing, almost as if they were rocketing upward, increasing by hundreds of points every second!

Of course, for Sterl at this point, legend points had already lost their significance. They were nothing more than a background display now.

Apart from the surge in legend points, an indescribable sense of confinement also disappeared from his body.

But that wasn’t all. As the massive amounts of orange light fused into him, he could feel his body undergoing some strange transformation.

The [Tanscendence] system prompt sounded in his ears.

[Legendary Story completed, conditions met for legendary promotion, upgrading in progress…]

[Ding… Legendary story exceeded the limit, receiving excess rewards!]

[Ding… Legendary story has broken through the limits, excess rewards increased!]

[Ding… Detected that the player has fully conquered the Alpha 8 world, legendary story completion increased by tenfold. You have earned the special title: World Overlord!]

[Based on the player’s performance in completing the legendary story, you have earned the following rewards:

Experience points increased: 999,999…

Distributable attribute points: 1000

All attributes increased: 300

Special Overlord Equipment acquired: Sword of the World, Overlord Armor, Bloody Feather…]

[You have awakened your exclusive legendary ability: Star Threads (Note: This ability is unique and awakened based on the player’s innate talent and authority heart).]

…

A series of prompts continued for quite a while before finally coming to an end.

Sterl slowly relaxed his mind. He could feel a powerful force spreading through his body, strengthening his physique.

The extent of this enhancement was so immense that even Sterl, with his current strength, could clearly feel the difference.

Especially the increase in basic attributes—300 points for all attributes, along with 1,000 points for free distribution of attributes!

Just the added attributes alone were already at the upper limit of what some lower-level legendary beings could achieve!

The most crucial part was that, after the boost from soul power, even the smallest increase in attributes had already reached more than ten times the previous effect!
